title: [Indications for the use of latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap in breast reconstruction. Personal experience].
abstract: The paper illustrates the results of the application of the latissimus dorsi myo-cutaneous flap in breast reconstruction following mastectomy due to cancer in five patients with three different indications. Following a critical evaluation of the indications and results of breast reconstruction using the rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap, the Authors conclude by confirming the validity of indications given and the positive characteristics of the myo-cutaneous flap used.
